  1. Hard to start after getting gas

    I haven't had it happen on my Gladiator yet, but on other vehicles I've had it was a bad EVAP purge valve that caused that.
  2. What level of risk is damage to the doors?

    I hang my door similar to that for days at a time to weeks at a time. Zero issues. I've never noticed any flexing of the frame when putting my door on or off the hangers. It seems to be a common practice. I'd think there'd be many horror stories out there if was a problem.
  3. Cool Daily Random JT Gladiator Pics -- Post Em! šŸ“ø

    I guess I didn’t watch the weather close enough. Had to pull her into the warehouse before it started raining…
  4. Sh!ts Crazy right now and $2.99/Gallon E85 in California is looking pretty good

    Correct. In order to run E85 you’ll have to be tuned for it. Then you’ll have no issues. Without a tune you’ll destroy your engine. Ethanol is a dirty word for some reason in certain car communities. E85 is completely safe once tuned for it. All modern vehicle’s fuel systems are ethanol...
  5. Cool Daily Random JT Gladiator Pics -- Post Em! šŸ“ø

    This is the first day in southwest Ohio in weeks where there's a stretch of no rain in the forecast! That means top and doors off!
  6. Tread death (under lugs) - almost puncture but no air loss

    Hard to tell the size from the picture but judging it compared to the sipe channels it's small and not deep. I wouldn't have any issues running it like that. I agree with Daniel, just a cosmetic scar.
  7. 2023 Auto Gladiator Mojave Hard Reverse Shift

    This thread has made me want to try some difference things the past few mornings... When I start it for the first time in the morning my rpm's are usually around 1400. When I shift into reverse during that time it always hard shifts. If I sit there and wait for the rpm's to drop, it seems to...

    What is your tach reading when it shifts hard in reverse?
  9. 2023 Auto Gladiator Mojave Hard Reverse Shift

    My ā€˜21 has done that forever. Happens on the first drive of the day in the early morning. Never does again the rest of the day. It seems to be when I start it, the rpm’s are still higher and it shifts hard in reverse. If I start it and the rpm’s go to normal idle right away it doesn’t do it...
  10. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Got around to changing out my door checks to the new quick disconnect style. The old ones were starting to pop when opening the doors. Much smoother now!
  11. JT vs JL ride quality

    It’s the remote reservoir fox shocks that come on the Mojave’s.
  12. JT vs JL ride quality

    Yeah, I thought about buying some low milage take offs but went the rebuilt route. It was around $1,100. The cheapest new ones I could find were over $600 each and that was on sale.
  13. JT vs JL ride quality

    I feel your pain. I had my Fox shocks rebuilt about a month ago...
  14. JT vs JL ride quality

    Look at us! We have something over the diesel guys! It's usually them on their high horse. They may have more power and better fuel economy, but we a cushier ride!
